"What else?"

Hearing Gu Cheng's words, Cheng Hao turned around and asked impatiently.

Seeing Cheng Hao stop, Gu Cheng walked up to Cheng Hao, took a deep breath, as if making some kind of major decision, "Have you heard of the Earth Spirit Fruit before?" After speaking, he stared at Cheng Hao with blazing eyes, wanting to see how the other party reacted.

"Hmm, Earth Spirit Fruit..."Cheng Hao pretended to think hard, and then shook his head again, "If you have anything to say, just say it!"

In fact, Cheng Hao has never heard of any earth spirit fruit at all, although he has cultivated vigorously, it has only been a few years since he practiced, and he has never even gone out of the small county town of Qingzhou City, except for specially inquiring about the current pattern of rivers and lakes from Ying Tianxing, it can be said that everything else is blank.

The reason why I said this was to see what the other party meant, according to the attitude of taking care of the city, this earth spirit fruit didn't seem to be an ordinary thing, but why should I tell myself?

"Exactly. Gu Cheng, who is old and refined, couldn't see Cheng Hao's thoughts, and said, "A few years ago, my Gu family lived and went out to travel, passing by a snow-capped mountain in the Western Regions, and found that there was an earth spirit fruit growing on the top of the mountain. But... Alas!" Speaking of this, Gu Cheng stopped talking, looking quite helpless.

"Since that's the case, what are you telling me to do, just go and pick it up!" Cheng Hao clasped his hands around his chest, stroked his chin with one hand, and frowned and wondered.

Listening to the meaning of Gu Cheng's words, Cheng Hao also guessed a little bit of the other party's thoughts, and then Gu Cheng must have something to ask him for help, no matter what the effect of this spiritual fruit is, since the Gu family has been preparing for this for a year, they easily told him the news, there must be something hidden in it.

"Alas, it's not a secret, this should have been an opportunity for my Gu family. Gu Cheng said indignantly, "Since the discovery of this Earth Spirit Fruit, every once in a while, the family will send someone over to observe the situation. A few days ago, the person who sent the guard saw that the spiritual fruit of the earth was about to ripen, so he guarded it day and night. But he was discovered by Ouyang Xu, injured my Gu family's disciples, and occupied the Earth Spirit Fruit. He beat his chest as he spoke, and he hated to break Ouyang Xu's body into pieces.

"Killer Ouyang Xu?"

This is a famous master in the rivers and lakes, Cheng Hao has naturally heard of it, it is rumored that this person is very small-minded, and his shot is very ruthless, and anyone who has offended him will not be able to escape his desperate yin and yang hand, and the title of desperate hand comes from this.

Ouyang Xu disappeared a few years ago, and it was rumored that he had left the Chu State, but he never thought to hear from him at this time.

"It is this person, Ouyang Xu is a long-famous master of chemical strength, and my Gu family master is not his opponent. The Earth Spirit Fruit is not yet ripe, in order to avoid the leakage of news, with his character, he will definitely not let go of my Gu family!"

It seemed that Ouyang Xu's potential threat made the Gu family feel desperate, and even Gu Cheng, a powerful grandmaster, was a little disheartened when talking about him.

"So you brought these people to Qingcheng to apprentice this time, just to seek refuge?"

Cheng Hao looked at Gu Yutong and the others standing on the shore of the lake and asked. The Gu family discovered the treasure of heaven and earth, but because of this, they attracted a strong enemy. This is very similar to the Zao Wou-Ki family back then, and he also has a trace of sympathy for the Gu family's situation.

As if sensing Cheng Hao's gaze, Gu Yutong and the others shrank back a little frightened, looking quite helpless.

"That's true, this was originally the only way my Gu family could think of now. But now that he has met his seniors, Gu Cheng hopes that his seniors can help me and help my Gu family through the crisis. ”

Gu Cheng admitted calmly. If you get the protection of the Qingcheng faction, although the price will be very high. But if Ouyang Xu wanted to move the Gu family, he had to consider whether he could withstand the anger of the Qingcheng faction.

With the qualifications of Gu Yutong and the four of them, even if they are sent to the Qingcheng faction, it is difficult to achieve anything. On the contrary, the Gu family has to continue to pay tribute to Qingcheng every year, but now there is only one way.

Cheng Hao's appearance made Gu Cheng change his mind, as long as Cheng Hao was willing to make a move and unite with the head of the Gu family, he would definitely be able to defeat Ouyang Xu. The head of the Gu family is also a master of chemical strength, but he has only broken through in just a few years, and he has not yet reached the realm of chemical strength.

"Cheng agreed to this matter, but I will help you get out of trouble, and the earth spirit fruit will belong to me. If you can, meet here in three days. ”

Out of that trace of pity for the Gu family, it was more that Cheng Hao also wanted to see what the spiritual fruit of this place was, which could attract so much attention from the Gu family and Ouyang Xu.

Don't look at Cheng Hao's young age, he is already in the realm of turning strength into a small success, this is just Zhao Wouji sacrificing himself to achieve him, but how many innate powerhouses can there be in the world? The dignified Qingcheng faction is just the two Nangong Que brothers, and on the bright side, Ye Xuan, who is at the peak of his strength, is the representative figure. It can be seen that in the case of being born in the first place, the master of Huajin can be regarded as the top figure in the rivers and lakes.

"So naturally, there is no problem, then Gu Cheng thanked his predecessors first. After speaking, he bowed deeply to Cheng Hao, didn't say a word to Cheng Hao who had killed the gray-robed man before, turned around and left with Gu Yutong and the others, but when he turned around, there was a strange smile on his face that was not easy to detect.

Cheng Hao didn't find anything wrong, and after determining the time, he called Huzi and them to go back together. I was thinking about the Earth Spirit Fruit all the way, and I said that I should go to Ying Tianxing to inquire.

Huzi and Ergou didn't say a word, they didn't know what they were thinking, and after a while, the two spoke at the same time.

"Mouse!"

The two glanced at each other, as if surprised by each other's tacit understanding.

Hearing them call himself, Cheng Hao turned his head suspiciously and asked, "What's the matter?"

"What... You see, we've been playing since we were kids, and that... That..."

The second dog squeaked and whined, and couldn't say why for a long time, and Cheng Hao was confused.

Huzi couldn't help it, and pulled Ergou aside, "Mouse, Ergou and I want to learn martial arts from you." After speaking, scratching his honest head, he seemed a little embarrassed, "We are all from Shicun, you know, I don't know anything, but I have the strength, if you teach us martial arts, Ergou and I will simply recognize you as a big brother." ”

"What big brother is not big brother, we are good brothers, if you want to learn, I can let you enter the Qingcheng faction to practice, how about it?"

Since they want to learn martial arts, Cheng Hao naturally won't help them, although with their age, I'm afraid it's not suitable anymore, but what does it matter?

"Really? Mouse, you're so interesting. ”

Ergou was excited, although he didn't know how powerful the Qingcheng faction was, but Gu Cheng's posture on the lake before was so chic, although he was not Cheng Hao's opponent, he couldn't deny his strength. Even the powerful Gu Cheng wanted to be protected by the Qingcheng faction, it would definitely not be too bad. Realizing the horror of martial artists, they don't expect to be as powerful as Cheng Hao, as long as they can learn the ability to protect themselves.

Huzi still scratched his head and smiled, saying some words of gratitude to Cheng Hao. If they knew what kind of existence the Qingcheng faction was, and knew that there were many masters in it that even Cheng Hao couldn't match, I am afraid they would be even more excited.

The three of them talked and laughed, all the way back to Xu's Medical Center, and the family finished dinner. After a tiring day, I went to rest early.

Early the next morning, after explaining to everyone, Cheng Hao went to the inn and found Ying Tianxing.

"Earth Spirit Fruit, are you sure the Gu family has discovered the Earth Spirit Fruit?"

Ying Tianxing lost his voice, and when Cheng Hao told Gu Cheng what he said, Ying Tianxing couldn't believe it for a while.

The Earth Spirit Fruit is an extremely rare Spirit Fruit. It is said that this spiritual fruit can improve people's qualifications and understanding, and it is said that it blossoms and bears fruit every 20 years, and it takes another 20 years to mature. And the growing conditions are extremely harsh, it must be rooted in the cold of the ice for thousands of years to grow, many people only hear its name, but few people have actually seen it.

"That's right, according to Gu Cheng's statement at that time, it seems that this spiritual fruit is extremely rare. But I didn't know what it was, so I came to Elder Ying for answers. ”

Judging from Ying Tianxing's attitude, this earth spirit fruit may be even more precious than he imagined, Cheng Hao asked patiently.

"Earth Spirit Fruit is a rare heaven and earth treasure, I have only heard of some of his effects, but I don't know much about it, you wait a minute, I'll go through the information. After speaking, Ying Tianxing hurriedly walked to the backyard study.

Cheng Hao was not in a hurry, he sat there quietly and waited, in order to avoid accidents, he had to understand everything clearly.

"Found it, found it, Cheng Hao, look. ！”

After a while, Ying Tianxing walked out with an ancient book and shouted Cheng Hao loudly.

"I'll see. ”

After taking the ancient book, Cheng Hao carefully checked it, and the introduction of the earth spirit fruit in the book was extremely detailed.

Seven Star Grass: A spiritual plant that grows in extremely cold places, it can strengthen bones and strengthen the body of warriors, which is really a rare treasure. The Seven Star Grass blooms and bears fruit once in its lifetime, with a main fruit and thirty-five auxiliary fruits, a total of thirty-six, which is secretly in line with the number of earth evils, so it is called the earth spirit fruit.

Ten years of flowering, ten years of fruiting, ten years of growth, ten years of maturity, a total of forty years before and after. The main fruit can make people reborn, and the innate martial artists can break through at least one realm by taking it, and they can improve their qualifications and understanding, which is extremely rare. The auxiliary fruit can also lay a foundation for ordinary people, improve a certain root bone, and is a good medicine for cultivating junior martial artists in family sects.

The introduction in the book made Cheng Hao overjoyed, if he could get the Earth Spirit Fruit, he might be able to break through to the point of becoming a great success. And the most important thing about the earth spirit fruit is that it can improve its qualifications and understanding, which is the most precious, a person's qualifications determine future achievements, Cheng Hao knows that his qualifications are not bad, but who would think it is better?

"However, according to what I saw, this Gu Cheng may not have other plans. ”

Although he couldn't bear to pour cold water at this time, he had to tell Cheng Hao about the pros and cons. has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and his ability to analyze things is far from being comparable to Cheng Hao.

"Oh, how do you say this?" Compared with Gu Cheng, Cheng Hao naturally trusted Ying Tianxing more.

"Think about it, why did Gu Cheng ask you for help?

Ying Tianxing said with a smile.

"Huh?"

After Cheng Hao heard this, he also began to doubt. The Gu family found out that the Earth Spirit Fruit was occupied by Ouyang Xu, why did he ask himself for help? Is it just that he fancied his own cultivation? Could it be that in their entire Xin'an County, and even in Qingzhou, they couldn't find a single other family willing to help?

No matter how bad it is, they will continue to send their disciples to the Qingcheng faction, and at that time, with the Qingcheng faction as their backing, how dare Ouyang Xu touch half of his Gu family? There must be fraud in this. In the final analysis, Cheng Hao was still too conceited about his own cultivation and only cared about the earth spirit fruit, if it wasn't for Tianxing's reminder, he didn't think of this.

"What should the elder think of this matter, could it be that there is some conspiracy in this Gu City?"

I don't understand, Cheng Hao wants to hear Ying Tianxing's analysis.

Ying Mou believes that what Gu Cheng said is nine true and one false, the earth spirit fruit is true, and it should also be true that he was occupied by Ouyang Xu, but the Gu family is not as dangerous as he said. ”

Speaking of this, Ying Tianxing pondered a little, and then said, "Although Ouyang Xu is a lone ranger and has a strong cultivation, he will not easily offend a family like the Gu family to death, presumably the Gu family's original intention was to send the children of the family to the Qingcheng faction in order to get more benefits from Ouyang Xu." As for you, if you kill a grandmaster of the Gu family, he wants you to die. ”

The last sentence of the sentence to your death, the tone was extremely calm, which made Cheng Hao tremble in his heart.

"Good Gu Cheng, I will kill him in two days. ”

Ying Tianxing's analysis made Cheng Hao suddenly realize, and secretly said that he was too simple-minded and too conceited. had an unprecedented killing intent towards Gu Cheng, he kindly let him go, and was even willing to help his Gu family get out of trouble, but he was so vicious that he wanted to harm himself.

If he was with the past, but the Gu family put aside the relationship in time, if he wanted to get the Earth Spirit Fruit, he would have to sin Ouyang Xu, and he would be afraid that his life would be in danger at that time.

"Hehe, Ying doesn't recommend you to do this?"

Feeling Cheng Hao's anger, Ying Tianxing was indifferent and seemed to have a better suggestion.
